Pastor Micah Stephens preaches from Acts 24, urging believers to embrace the whole counsel of God with unwavering obedience, even in the face of persecution.

Pastor Micah Stephens concludes the Sermon on the Mount series with a powerful message from Matthew 7, urging believers to choose the narrow road of obedience to Christ. He presents three binary contrasts—two gates (narrow to life, wide to destruction), two trees (good fruit or bad), and two foundations (rock or sand)—emphasizing that true discipleship requires doing, not just hearing, God’s Word. Using personal anecdotes, like Jordan Peterson’s hesitation to claim Christianity, and cultural critiques, Pastor Micah warns against false prophets and deceptive doctrines that lure toward the wide path.
